I thought in this story the operator did let the person in, which if so was a grave mistake that they now have to carry with them. Though I wonder how you think an operator would know if people have metal on them? Definitely not by trusting people to decide/judge by themselves I hope?
The policy should be no one but the patient and staff is allowed in, the prep for the patient prior to procedure (both in advance and immediately prior) should cover them, and staff should be adequately trained.
There should be no need to evaluate random other people because they simply should not be allowed in at all.
Not sure why it would have to be a massive cost? Wouldn’t even need to be a room, a door like metal detector used normal security settings with its sensitivity turned up.
Pretty much yea. As soon a something becomes "medical-something" or "boat-something" the price goes up exponentially.
This is why JerryRigEverything started his "not a wheelchair" -company[0], who are not selling wheelchairs, but they happen to look a lot like wheelchairs :)
Because it's not certified as an official medical device (a wheelchair), they can sell it for (IIRC) 80% cheaper than Official Wheelchairs.
I don't even want to know what "The Rig", their offroad wheelchair, would cost if it was an approved medical device...
I would advocate for fixing both dysfunctions at the same time… sometimes fixing two difficult problems simultaneously is easier than individually.
The whole medical cartel is under immediate threat by both LLMs and cheap peptides (e.g. semaglutide). In my view ozempic really is a miracle drug that is unusually effective for autoimmune conditions which I think make up the vast majority of undiagnosed and untreated conditions.
It used to be Dr. Google giving better advice, now it’s Dr, ChatGPT. And at least for my conditions it gives better advice than any doctor I’ve ever been to and I’ve been to a lot.
